1. Yields calculated as 48 pounds per bushel at 12.0% moisture.
2. C.V. = 4.8%, and df for EMS = 18.
3. The F-test indicated no statistical difference at the alpha = 0.1 probability level; therefore, an LSD value was not calculated.
Bolding indicates entries yielding equal to highest yielding entry within a column based on Fisher's protected LSD (P = 0.10).
Planted: November 15, 1999.
Harvested: May 23, 2000.
Seeding Rate: 15 seeds per foot in 7" rows.
Soil Type: Greenville sandy clay loam.
Soil Test: P = High, K = High, and pH = 6.2.
Fertilization: 9 lb N, 54 lb P2O5, and 27 lb K2O/acre.
  60 lb N/acre.
Management: Subsoiled and rototilled.
Previous Crop: Peanut.
           
Test conducted by A. E. Coy, M. D. Pippin, and R. R. Pines.
